Mobile data connection issue after tethering

my phone is Z5 Premium Dual,

after i use my phone as tethering device, my phone cannot connect to internet using my mobile data,

if i browse via google chrome, it always say error 503 service unavailable

i cannot open my play store too. it always say connection to google server error.

if i make my phone as tethering device again when this error occurs, then i use my tab to connect, my tab can browse/download normally, so it's not my ISP problems.

please give me advice to fix this.

That's a really odd issue, you might want to consider repairing the phone with PCC

software repair

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

One more suggestion, settings > apps > all > look for all the Google apps and services > clear data > uninstall updates on both chrome and play store > restart the phone > check again.

Do you have auto update apps set up on play store?

update:

this issue has no any relation with tethering.

i already do factory reset, all mobile data connection has normal.

do update in what's new, then the connection issue come back.

so the culprit is some update from what's new, i don't know which one, because i do a bulk update.

then now i must do factory reset again.

so wasting time.

and sony local support doesn't reply my email,

Why haven't you called them instead of emailing them? also check your spam folder.
